About the company
Susan Peterson Productions Inc., doing business as The Communication Center, operates as a woman-owned small business providing media training, executive communication coaching, presentation skills development, and crisis communication services to federal agencies as a prime contractor (100% of recent awards). The company is based in Washington, DC, with over 39 years of federal training experience and no subcontractor footprint in the source data.
The Communication Center's federal footprint centers on two primary vehicles. The GSA Multiple Award Schedule (MAS), valued at $5.291 million through December 2029, anchors the majority of task orders — 13 orders worth $4.3 million combined potential value — and serves as the delivery mechanism for work with the Department of Health and Human Services agencies, the Department of State, the International Development Finance Corporation, and others. A single-award Blanket Purchase Agreement with the USDA Forest Service (valued at $3 million through September 2028) secures a separate line of media training work for the Forest Service's National Leadership Team. The company also places work under The Professional Services Schedule, where 35 task orders carry $1.1 million in combined potential value.
Customer concentration is shallow and spread across 26 distinct agencies. The top five funding sources by award count represent 44% of awards and include the FDA (7 awards, $1.1 million), the HHS Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration (7 awards, $424 thousand), the US Agency for Global Media (5 awards, $33 thousand), and the HHS National Institute on Aging and National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (4 awards each). By dollar value, however, the GSA Federal Acquisition Service anchors the portfolio at $7.6 million (the MAS contract itself rather than task orders), followed by the USDA Forest Service at $3 million, and the FDA at $1.1 million — together representing 94% of combined potential value.
Representative work includes a $353,384 delivery order from HHS's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Preparedness and Response (BARDA) for external media and presentation training running through October 2029, a $252,745 FDA delivery order for media training to the Office of Media Affairs through February 2029, a $198,116 delivery order from the International Development Finance Corporation for media training through July 2029, and a $153,615 delivery order from HHS's Office of the Assistant Secretary for Administration for executive media training through September 2027. Smaller delivery orders and purchase orders ($6,884 to $29,122) service individual agency needs for crisis media training and presentation skills coaching at the National Library of Medicine, the National Institute of Mental Health, the National Heart Lung and Blood Institute, and the USDA Forest Service.
Activity has remained flat over the past five years (3 awards in 2021, 5 in 2024, 1 in 2026 through early July). Only one award worth $154 thousand reaches ultimate completion within the next twenty-four months, indicating minimal recompete exposure in the near term. The vendor's capability footprint is concentrated in public relations and professional development training (32 awards under the Public Relations Agencies NAICS and 22 under Professional and Management Development Training), reflecting the narrow scope of its federal customer base — communication training and coaching across civilian agencies with no defense exposure.
